How a filmmaker can use aweber
How filmmakers can use AWeber for marketing films
Filmmakers can use AWeber in building a fan base, for the release of their next film or T-shirts, and here’s how.
First I’ll tale you what AWeber is. Short and sweet, it’s an auto responder/membership sign up box. Call it what you want, but if your not using one of these, “then I’m sorry” and this is why.
The short and sweet, if your making future films, and you haven’t built a list of fans that you can send a newsletter, telling them about your new film project, or in the can film “again I’m sorry” but I always like to say it’s never to late.
So how does AWeber work, and why is it ideal for a filmmaker that want to self distribute.
First, this is the Internet, and marketing a film on the Internet is the same as any other product. You want to build a list of costumers/fans so you can tell them about your new products/films, are send them a news letter telling them about a product/film that’s not even out yet, build their interest and suspense. Are you seeing the need for this great tool “it gets better” With AWeber you get unlimited auto responders, what does that means for a filmmaker, that has different types of films. Like documentaries, horror, and westerns, well you can have a separate auto responder for all different categories. Witch gives you the ability to keep track of your different client/fan groups, and if you just want to send a news letter to your horror fans, you can “is that cool are what!”
Tips on getting people/fans to sign in.
Offer a newsletter give away something like a trailer that only your signed up fans get to have. There are many things you can offer.
So don’t waste anymore time or website leakage, and get your auto responder today. Click here
